I wrote a short story for a swap on swap-bot. I originally wrote a story that was over 1500words then I saw the swap had a word cap of 1000 words. So I came up with this story at 2am. Such a challenge. But it is complete.

Wrote a Utopian-dystopian short story set in the years following 2067, when a hurricane destroyed what was previously known as North America. 'The Branded Identity' is about a boy reaching the legal age in which he must be marked by a bar coded metal wristband. This band would serve as his library card, his credit card, and much more in the years to follow.
